Curse

yeah so my idea for chapter 4 would be the long long project of rebuilding the once empire of Orr. So the stories in Prophecies and Factions say that it's been like, dead. But I think it'd be interesting if the Developers would make chapter 4 be the ressurection of it. Of course you're not going to fight Charr unless you make Charr that can swim. If you're confused on the swimming part, it says when you're going from Cantha to LA that it's been like flooded or something. If I'm wrong... then make it where it flooded anyway.
So if it's flooded, this can totally boost the idea of a total Boat war thingy people have been talking about.
But yeah I'm assuming that the Elonians in Nightfall are the ones that died in the Prophecies campaign, though I have no idea but they got the same freakin name! Factions, I don't know where the hell they pulled that out from since the only connection is through Mhenlo. But anyway it'd cool to me if the developers were to complete a story of all of the human empires.
w00t!
If you got lost, sorry....

I didnt completely understand your concept.

Ive played through both games and I dont remember the "Orr" being mentioned?

But boat wars?

Meaning people would control ships and fight each other?

If so, and im not confused, that would require a whole new graphics engine to handle vehicles.

Plus from what I understood, this city or island existed INSIDE tyria? but was flooded?

I dont see how you would implement that goegraphically. You couldnt add a location inside an existing map.

If I got the wrong end of the stick I apologise.

The Scepter of Orr should be... a pretty obvious indication. They're also in wrtten lore in the Prophecies manual... man you ahave alot of reading to do. Big subject about the orr, that's what all those undead are... anyway save youself and read: http://gw.gamewikis.org/wiki/Orr

I knew about the scepter of Orr, but I wasnt aware there was an entire history based around its creatures.

Well now that ive read that...

...you could do the OP'ers story line if they created a continent populated by survivors of the destroyed Orr island.

The Orr empire is sort of explained at the Sanctum Cay mission. The dude there tells you plenty.

/notsigned
Alex Weekes and others for a.net have said repeatedly and strongly (for some reason) that they will never EVER go to Orr. They said Orr is destroyed and underwater. There is nothing left.
I don't know why exactly, but this has been suggested before and the developers have been strongly against this idea.

Orr wasn't destroyed in such a way as to allow rebuilding. It was obliterated in such a way that whatever wasn't destroyed is sitting at the bottom of a sea. In order for ANY game to go to Orr, we would need scuba gear.

aaaawwwww.....
So they can't use ridiculous magic by using magic stones to lift the empire?

which would be rediculous, the only other option would be to go back to Orr as it was before it sunk, but, eh, it still wouldn't justify a whole new chapter, just wouldn't be viable.
